My favorite way to enjoy fresh ravioli!

Fried Spinach Ravioli with feta and basil dip @createdbydiane

I am a pasta girl through and through,

It’s no wonder then, that frying raviolis have been on my mind, right?

This is one easy and delicious appetizer that you can whip up and it sure is great to have a hot and tasty appetizer in minutes.

The feta and basil dip is super easy and WOW is it tasty, it goes really well with the spinach ravioli.

There are many types of gourmet flavored ravioli at the stores than just cheese, so take a look and you must may find a new favorite yourself.

I love the spinach raviolis, but the possibilities are endless here, I’ve seen mushroom ravioli, crab ravioli, chicken. I’m sure I will be making some more varieties soon new dips too. Snacking and appetizers are a must this time of year. There is always a game on, a last minute get together or I need something to bring somewhere and not a whole day to plan it out. So these just may be my new go to appy!

The feta and basil dip is slightly tangy and pairs really well with the ravioli, what a fresh taste the basil ads to it. Not going to lie, I have dipped pretzels, chips, bread, zucchini into this dip and it’s so yummy, I bet your will find some more items you love dipped in it too!

    Sounds like an absolutely delectable combination. I have never been much for deep frying, but I know I’ll find a way to use this dip.

      You can bake the ravioli if you prefer and wanted to try them with this dip. You can slightly wet the ravioli (or use an egg wash) and coat them in bread crumbs before baking.
